Allow me to disagree. Breaking the javadoc just because a @param is missing is 
imo plain wrong.

Usually parameters should be self-explaining. I personally only document 
interfaces and methods where it is *not* clear what the params intend. 


Please don't let us end up with tons of unnecessary (because obvious) Javadocs 
just to make java8 happy.

I've done some research and asked some Java8 devs I know. Seems

<additionalparam>-Xdoclint:all,-missing</additionalparam>

could do the trick. Still need to test it though.

We should btw add this to the apache-parent pom and not only to commons-parent.
